I wonder whether we should divide the problem into two parts:
- One part is whether in a particular buffer 0x60/0x27 should be
displayed so that they look like grave/vertical quote or like open/close
quote. This is determined by mode and individual user preference; this
problem is specific to quotes.
- One part is whether the glyphs at index 0x60/0x27 in a particular font
display as grave/vertical quote or like open/close quote. This has
nothing to do with user preference or mode. Emacs could be configured so
that it knows about common free fonts. This part seems like it would be
best tackled in a general way by allowing per-font control over
character to glyph index mapping (or is there some way to do this in
Emacs do this already?).
